Particular care was taken to express the Wasabi: The private Rockwell Group Europe was asked to restore the N dining room Harbour Bar and Wasabi by Morimoto spaces to their original glory and splendour. To that end, we decided to completely renovate the spaces and reinterpret the design and theme to reflect the Taj’s tradition of providing outstanding culinary experiences. Harbour Bar was particularly challenging to de- sign due to the fact that it has a long and well-es- tablished history. It was the first restaurant or bar in India to receive a liquor license. For over 80 years, Harbour Bar has been the power room of Mumbai; most business deals in the city have been finalised there. Many generations of Mumbai residents and visitors have very different and strong memories of the bar. Part of our strategy to find innovative design that would address the various expectations of the Harbour Bar’s guests was to research the bar’s dif- ferent iterations from when it first opened in 1933 and celebrate the many design components that made its reputation. We also had a more pragmatic challenge. Prior to 26/11, Harbour Bar and Wasabi were connected by a steep spiral staircase, which was destroyed by the attacks. The client required a more comfortable staircase and a large elevator. In addition, Harbour Bar is a small and intimate space, so finding an ap- propriate design solution that incorporated these elements without compromising the intimacy of the space was an enormous challenge. As this is a Grade 1 listed heritage building, what were some of the areas of concern for the interior design? The Heritage building designation only affected the parts of our design plan that involved the building’s façade.
